IPL 2016: Royal Challengers Bangalore vs Rising Pune Supergiants

"I was pretty determined tonight. Today I was just motivated to go then extra mile, because it was a crunch game for us. The chase wasn't that easy, it's never easy when you know that you have to keep up the run rate. Great stuff by KL Rahul and Shane Watson. It's all about keeping your enthusiasm, excitement and nerves in check. I try to focus within myself. When you are chasing 12-13 an over, it's important to not get bogged down despite losing wickets. It's all about understanding the situation," Kohli says.

Chasing a steep target, RCB started off cautiously, before Kohli and Rahul shared a 94-run opening partnership. After Rahul's 38-run contribution, Watson came in with a 36-run cameo which tipped the balance in their favour. But throughout the innings, Virat Kohli, by playing some exquisite strokes, anchored the chase and ended with his second ton of this edition.

This was a masterclass by Kohli. He hadn't chased and finished the game for his side so far in then IPL, and he chose to do so this evening. Better late than never, as RCB keep up their hopes of making it to the playoffs.

19.2 Dinda to Kohli, 2 runs, Kohli walks across the stumps and thinks of ramping him, but sees that the ball was not of the right length, so tried to drive. Gets an inside edge, and the ball goes to fine leg for a couple.

18.6 RP Singh to Kohli, SIX! 100 for KOHLI! Straighter ball, on then stumps, Kohli makes room for himself, and smashes the ball straight over the bowler's head for another six to bring up his 100! What a man! What a knock.

18.5 RP Singh to Kohli, SIX! That's on the second tier. Length ball on leg stump, Kohli picks it up off his legs and smashes that over midwicket for another six! That hit the partition between the first and second tier.

17.4 Zampa to Kohli, FOUR! A leg break outside off, Kohli tries to hit it over the leg side, gets an outside edge, and the ball goes in between third man and point. Tiwary gives chase and puts in the dive, but the ball races past the fence.

17.1 Zampa to Kohli, SIX! ON the leg stump, Kohli sits down on one leg, and sweeps the ball flat over midwicket for a six to start off the over. Hits the toe end of the bat but has enough power to beat a jumping Rahane. The fielder has injured himself in the process, and walks off the field.

15.6 RP Singh to Kohli, 1 run, DROPPED! Kohli makes room, RP follows him with a slower ball outside leg, Kohli flicks it in the air towards long on, Bailey runs in and dives forward to take the catch, but couldn't reach it completely.

15.3 RP Singh to Watson, OUT! That was right on the middle stump, Watson went for the big hog but missed the shot. The ball hits Watson's back leg. That was plumb. Playing across the line accounted for his wicket, as he went for the sweep but missed the straight ball on stumps.
